Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fluorescent fiber optic temperature sensing devices, and more specifically, to a multilayer fluorescent fiber optic temperature sensing system and its application method. Background Technology

[0002] Ring main units are commonly used medium-voltage power distribution equipment in urban power distribution systems. Their internal cable joints, busbars and other components are prone to high temperatures during operation due to current load. If not monitored in time, this may lead to insulation aging or failure.

[0003] Traditional temperature measurement systems suffer from insufficient shielding, making them susceptible to high electromagnetic interference within ring main units, resulting in large measurement errors. Furthermore, the high power consumption of these systems makes them unsuitable for continuous online monitoring. The limited space within ring main units, coupled with the large size of traditional sensors, further complicates installation.

[0004] Existing fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement technology uses a single fiber optic probe, which has low signal collection efficiency. A single fluorescent material cannot cover the wide temperature range of cable joints and busbars, and the fluorescence intensity decays severely under high temperature conditions. The temperature measurement lifespan stability is insufficient, making it difficult to meet the accuracy requirements of ring main unit temperature measurement.

[0005] Traditional signal processing algorithms are sensitive to noise, have difficulty processing complex fluorescence decay curves, and have long response times, which cannot meet the requirements of real-time monitoring. Summary of the Invention

[0011] Preferably, the transmission optical fiber is composed of one excitation optical fiber and six collection optical fibers. The six collection optical fibers are arranged around the excitation optical fiber, and the excitation optical fiber is located in the center of the six collection optical fibers. The optical fibers are arranged at a 25° angle to each other.

[0012] Preferably, the photoelectric signal processing device includes a light source module, a signal processing module, and a data output module. The light source module is positioned facing the collecting optical fiber and emits an optical signal into the collecting optical fiber. The signal processing module is positioned facing the excitation optical fiber and receives a fluorescence signal emitted by the excitation optical fiber. The signal processing module is electrically connected to the data output module.

[0013] Preferably, the light source module is configured as a dual-wavelength LED light source, with wavelengths set to 470nm and 532nm respectively, and a pulse modulation frequency of 15kHz.

[0014] Preferably, the signal processing module includes a high-speed silicon photodiode and an embedded DSP processor. The high-speed silicon photodiode is positioned facing the excitation fiber. The high-speed silicon photodiode receives the fluorescence signal emitted by the excitation fiber and converts the fluorescence signal into an electrical signal. The high-speed silicon photodiode is electrically connected to the embedded DSP processor and transmits the electrical signal to the embedded DSP processor.

[0015] Preferably, the fiber optic sensor is covered with a second protective layer, which is made of high-temperature resistant ceramic and has an outer diameter of 0.25 mm.

[0016] Secondly, this application also provides an application method for a multilayer fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement system, including:

[0017] Connect the connector to the inside of the ring main unit via a cable;

[0018] Make the probe end of the fiber optic sensor directly contact or be close to the temperature measuring point on the connector;

[0026] This invention employs an improved adaptive Prony algorithm, which enhances noise immunity by 30% through dynamic baseline correction and multi-band noise filtering. Its processing speed is 50% faster than traditional algorithms, and the response time is reduced to 0.004ms, fully meeting the stringent requirements of real-time online monitoring of ring main units. The overall system power consumption is less than 0.8W, and the use of high-efficiency dual-wavelength LED light sources and high-speed silicon photodiodes ensures low thermal effects and high stability during long-term system operation.

[0027] After actual testing, in scenarios involving 10kV ring main unit cable joints (50-150℃) and 35kV busbars (100-200℃), the system temperature measurement error remained within ±0.2℃, and the fluorescence signal intensity attenuation rate was less than 3%. This significantly improved the reliability and service life of the ring main unit temperature monitoring equipment, enhanced the efficiency of temperature measurement, and provided strong technical support for the safe operation of the power system.

[0039] Example 1:

[0040] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a multilayer fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement system, including: a connector 1, a fiber optic sensor, and a photoelectric signal processing device. The connector 1 is connected to the inside of a ring main unit via a cable. The fiber optic sensor is placed inside the ring main unit, with one end of the fiber optic sensor configured as a probe end and the other end configured as a fiber optic end. The fiber optic sensor is connected to the connector 1 through the probe end. The photoelectric signal processing device is located inside the ring main unit and is connected to the fiber optic end of the fiber optic sensor.

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the probe end of the fiber optic sensor is provided with a fluorescent layer 3 and an encapsulation layer 4. The outer surface of the probe end is coated with the fluorescent layer 3, and the encapsulation layer 4 is sleeved on the fluorescent layer 3. The fiber end of the fiber optic sensor includes a transmission fiber 2, a fiber material 5, and a first protective layer 6. The transmission fiber 2 is wrapped with the fiber material 5, and the first protective layer 6 is sleeved on the fiber material 5. One end of the transmission fiber 2 is connected to the probe end. The transmission fiber 2 is composed of one excitation fiber 21 and six collection fibers 22. The six collection fibers 22 are arranged around the excitation fiber 21, and the excitation fiber 21 is located in the center of the six collection fibers 22. The fibers are arranged at a 25° angle. The multi-fiber reflective sensor improves the signal collection efficiency by 25% by optimizing the angle arrangement.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, the photoelectric signal processing device includes a light source module, a signal processing module, and a data output module. The light source module is positioned facing the collecting optical fiber 22 and emits an optical signal into the collecting optical fiber 22. The signal processing module is positioned facing the excitation optical fiber 21 and receives the fluorescence signal emitted by the excitation optical fiber 21. The signal processing module is electrically connected to the data output module.

[0043] This invention connects the connector 1 to the inside of a ring main unit via a cable, allowing the probe end of the fiber optic sensor to directly contact or be close to the temperature measurement point 8 on the connector 1. The light source module in the photoelectric signal processing device emits light towards the collecting fiber 22, and the excitation fiber 21 collects the light signal to the fluorescent layer 3 at the probe end of the fiber optic sensor. The probe end of the fiber optic sensor integrates a miniature beam splitter, which, through wavelength-selective excitation, separates the signal and radiates fluorescence to form afterglow. The excitation fiber 21 and the afterglow excite the signal processing module in the photoelectric signal processing device, enabling it to collect the fluorescence signal, convert it into an electrical signal, calculate the measured temperature, and finally output the measured temperature through the data output module.

[0044] This invention supports multi-channel synchronous processing, and each ring network cabinet can cover 8-12 temperature measurement points. The fiber optic sensors are arranged in a ring at the elbow joint to realize real-time monitoring of multiple parts such as cable joints, busbars and contacts, with a coverage rate 2.5 times higher than that of traditional infrared point measurement.

[0045] Example 2:

[0046] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1, specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the fluorescent layer 3 is configured as a double layer. The first fluorescent layer is configured as a fluorescent layer containing Y2O3:Eu, and the composition ratio of Y2O3:Eu to phosphor is 1.5:1. The second fluorescent layer is configured as a fluorescent layer containing YPO4:Tb, and the composition ratio of YPO4:Tb to phosphor is 1.5:1. The coating thickness ratio of the first fluorescent layer to the second fluorescent layer is 1.5:1. The second fluorescent layer is disposed between the first fluorescent layer and the encapsulation layer 4.

[0047] This invention employs a multilayer fluorescent material structure, with a fluorescent layer containing Y2O3:Eu and a fluorescent layer containing YPO4:Tb sequentially coated at the end of the fiber optic probe. The main emission peak of the Y2O3:Eu fluorescent layer is 620nm, suitable for temperature measurement scenarios of 0-100℃, while the main emission peak of the YPO4:Tb fluorescent layer is 545nm, suitable for temperature measurement scenarios of 100-200℃. Through wavelength selective excitation and signal separation, the system's temperature measurement range is extended to 0-200℃, and the temperature measurement accuracy is improved to ±0.2℃. Compared with traditional fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement systems, the temperature measurement accuracy is improved by 80%, effectively meeting the high-precision temperature monitoring requirements of ring main units while reducing the fluorescence signal intensity attenuation rate by 35%, thus improving the lifetime stability of fluorescence under high-temperature conditions.

[0048] The fluorescent layer is prepared by chemical vapor deposition, which ensures tight interlayer bonding and increases the structure's high-temperature resistance and anti-aging properties.

[0049] Example 3:

[0050] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1. Specifically, the light source module is set as a dual-wavelength LED light source, with wavelengths set to 470nm and 532nm respectively, and a pulse modulation frequency of 15kHz. The signal processing module is equipped with a high-speed silicon photodiode and an embedded DSP processor. The high-speed silicon photodiode is positioned facing the excitation fiber 21. The high-speed silicon photodiode receives the fluorescence signal emitted by the excitation fiber 21 and converts the fluorescence signal into an electrical signal. The high-speed silicon photodiode is electrically connected to the embedded DSP processor, and the high-speed silicon photodiode transmits the electrical signal to the embedded DSP processor.

[0051] The overall power consumption of the system is less than 0.8W. It adopts a high-efficiency dual-wavelength LED light source and a high-speed silicon photodiode, which ensures low thermal effect and high stability during long-term operation of the system.

[0052] Example 4:

[0053] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1, specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the fiber optic sensor is covered with a second protective layer 7, which is made of high-temperature resistant ceramic and has an outer diameter of 0.25 mm; the outer surface of the encapsulation layer 4 is provided with titanium oxide; the fiber material 5 is made of Kevlar fiber; and the first protective layer 6 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene propylene.

[0054] The small-diameter fiber optic sensor, through its anti-electromagnetic interference coating, can maintain signal stability under high voltage and strong electromagnetic interference environments, and can be perfectly adapted to confined spaces such as ring main unit cable joints and busbars. At the same time, the invention uses a variety of high-temperature resistant materials, making the system suitable for temperature measurement scenarios of ring main unit cable joints and busbars, ensuring the stability of the equipment in extreme environments.

[0055] Example 5:

[0056] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1, specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown, a gap is provided between the fluorescent layer 3 and the transmission optical fiber 2. The gap forms an optical cavity, which enhances the temperature measurement sensitivity, buffers thermal expansion stress, and optimizes the collection efficiency of light signals while providing thermal isolation and protection for the fluorescent material.

[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, the fiber optic sensor is connected to the connector 1 by an insertion method. By creating a groove inside the connector 1 and filling it with insulating material, the fiber optic sensor is placed in the groove to achieve direct temperature measurement. This insertion method is the main installation method for the fiber optic sensor.

[0062] like Figure 5 As shown, the fiber optic sensor is connected to the connector 1 in a simple installation manner. The fiber optic sensor is placed on the outer surface of the connector 1. The simple installation method requires correction of deviation when monitoring temperature and is suitable for simple scenarios.

[0063] like Figure 6 As shown, the fiber optic sensor is connected to the connector 1 in an embedded installation manner. The connector 1 has a pre-embedded connector 9 inside. The fiber optic sensor is connected to the connector 1 through the pre-embedded connector 9 to realize temperature monitoring of the temperature measuring point 8. The embedded installation method requires improvement of the internal design of the connector 1 to improve the temperature measurement accuracy, but the installation process is relatively complicated.

[0067] Make the probe end of the fiber optic sensor directly contact or be close to the temperature measuring point 8 on the connector 1;

[0068] The light source module in the photoelectric signal processing device emits an LED light source to the optical fiber end of the optical fiber sensor with a pulse modulation frequency of 15kHz. The light signal is collected by the six collecting optical fibers 22 and sent to the fluorescent layer 3 at the probe end of the optical fiber sensor.

[0069] The probe end of the fiber optic sensor integrates a miniature beam splitter, which separates the signal through wavelength selective excitation, radiates fluorescence to form afterglow, and excites the signal processing module in the photoelectric signal processing device through the excitation fiber 21 and the afterglow.

[0070] The high-speed silicon photodiode in the signal processing module, in conjunction with the low-noise preamplifier circuit, acquires the fluorescence signal and converts it into an electrical signal. The circuit is set to a bandwidth of 120kHz.

[0071] The embedded DSP processor in the signal processing module integrates the adaptive Prony algorithm, and through dynamic baseline correction and multi-band noise filtering, fits the double exponential decay curve of the multilayer fluorescent material to calculate the measured temperature.

[0072] The measured temperature is output through the data output module.

[0073] Example 9:

[0074] This embodiment further optimizes upon embodiment 8. Specifically, it integrates a 64-bit encryption algorithm with frequency hopping anti-interference capabilities, ensuring data security, accuracy, and integrity, and preventing unauthorized operations. The photoelectric signal processing device employs hierarchical access control, allowing system administrators to assign different permissions to operators, restricting unauthorized operations and improving security.
